When you adjust the channel levels while in the SYSTEM SETUP CHANNEL LEVEL mode, the channel
level adjustments made will affect all surround modes. Consider this mode a Master Channel Level
adjustment mode.
After you have completed the SYSTEM SETUP CHANNEL LEVEL adjustments, you can then activate the
individual surround modes and adjust channel levels that will be remembered for each of those modes.
Then, whenever you activate a particular surround sound mode, your preferred channel level adjustments
for just that mode will be recalled. Check the instructions for adjusting channel levels within each
surround mode. (See page 39)
You can adjust the channel levels for each of the following surround modes: PURE DIRECT/DIRECT,
STEREO, DOLBY/DTS SURROUND, 5/7 CH STEREO, WIDE SCREEN, SUPER STADIUM, ROCK ARENA,
JAZZ CLUB, CLASSIC CONCERT, MONO MOVIE, VIDEO GAME, MATRIX and VIRTUAL.
